A Son
HUGH.
I snarl as | push Jai out of the way, making it just in tas Zade is ready to rip his heart out. 1
Seeing my son for the first twith an expression of hatred twisting his face is not what a father hopes for. He
turns the gun, cocking the trigger as he turns it on me.
There's recognition in his eyes and for a fraction of a second, | feel he is about to lower the gun, but that
expression vanishes pretty quickly as resentment and rage replace it.
“Zade, I'm Hugh, your father.”
“You ain't no fucking father of mine,” he snarls
venomously, pulling the trigger without mercy. | dodge and Jai lunges at him, throwing him back, only to be
thrown to the ground violently by Zade.
It's clear from the state Jai is in that he had been in wolf form. | never knew he could shift, but | am proud of him.
Everyone has pushed themselves to the limit, proving that their faith in the goddess remained.
“Are you alright Jai!” | growl as | run over to him. He’s in a bad state. There's blood pouring from his shoulder, left
flank, and his stomach. ” You need to get out of here,” | mutter, stepping in front of him as | flex my hands,
watching Zade, who is observingwith hatred, what | just did clearly triggered his anger.
“You're a fucking facade!” he snarls, launching himself at me. “I'll finish you first before I go find your precious
little princess!”
“She is your sister Zade. | chere to talk to you!” | counter loudly. The howls and shouts from aroundare
deafening, but even then, it feels like it's just the two of us.
| can see myself in him, although he does reminda little of Adam too, and it does hurt knowing he is far too
gone to save...
If only | had known years ago. | could have saved him...
“Too fucking late for that, way too fucking late! Don’t act like | don’t know the truth!” He hisses.
as he pulls out a knife, spinning it before he grabs it by the hilt and lunges at me.
I duck. | too have trained for years of my life. Even if | am no longer as young or fast as him, | am no fool...

I duck and dodge his attacks, aiming a kick in his stomach, only for him to bend backwards and swing his knife at
I move back, almost falling, but I aim a kick at his shin before backing away to regain myself.
“If this is about why | never cto find you, | never knew you made it... Your mother had an entire story
made...”
He throws his head back, letting off a bitter laugh. “You really are a fucking loser. | know the truth. | know that
you ain't my fucking father. Adam Toussaint was my father. Hate to break it to ya if you didn’t know that shit!” he

Who told him that?
They are my children... there is no doubt about that, but someone clearly manipulated the truth.
| see Jai move from the corner of my eyes, going for a discarded gun. As much as | know Zade is dangerous, |
need him to know the truth.
“Whoever told you that was lying! You and Zaia are mine,and your mother were fated mates! You are my
son!”
“I don’t buy your bullshit. | know you killed my father!” He snarls as the knife slices through my shoulder, pain
burning throughas | jump back, breathing hard.
How much distrust and hatred have they embedded in him?
“I am not lying, I am not saying forgivebecause | should have seen through Melanie's lies... but | don’t want
you to find out later and Jai pulls the trigger and Zade ducks, his aura raging around him as he turns on Jai,
sending a blast in his direction that sends him flying to the ground, but Jai still shoots again and this tit
connects. Zade grunts as he touches his left leg and looks at the blood on his fingers.
“Nice strategy to play decoy.” He says mockingly, ignoring Jai and turning his eye on me. | wonder what
happened to his other eye?
I doubt he'll want to share that with me.
“I'am not playing decoy or trying to distract you. Jai... leave this to me.” | say quietly as a few more of the
enemies’ men rush forward to assist Zade, but the others intercept them.
Zade’s powerful aura is swirling around him dangerously, and no one is managing to get close.
| see Jai try, concern in his eyes as he watches me, but I'm more concerned about his state. He needs medical
care, but he refuses to back out as he gives commands to sof the men.
A good beta.
“Too late to pretend to care. | need to get this over with so | can go grab my nephew.” He says
mockingly, tilting his head to the side. Unease floodsand | shake my head.
No... Zaia has ctoo far for this... far too far. | will never let anyone hurt her or the children. again!
“Then | will have to stop you. Son or not.” | say quietly.
“Don’t antagonise me!” he snarls as he rushes at me, far too fast forto duck this time.
| grab his wrist as he plunges the knife into my stomach.
“Alpha Hugh!” Justin, Zaia's other beta, shouts.
| can see the blinding light around us build higher, stopping anyone from getting close enough to assist me.
Zade is powerful, extremely powerful, and he is a trained killer. He has no remorse. There's an arrogant smile on
his face as he pushes the knife deeper into my stomach.
“Are you really so far gone that you do not realise this is wrong?” | grunt, ignoring the pain as | try to push him
back, my hand still holding his tightly.
He looks up atand cocks a brow. “So far gone? Really? I've worked my entire life to get rid of scum who don’t
deserve to be called alphas!” he hisses. “Your death will help cleanse the world of trash and scum.”
“No... it won't. You won't win this because you chose the losing side!” | shout as | slam my shoulder into his
chest and from the bottom of my heart, I will myself to transform.
This is not something | have done in years... Pain rips through me, spreading like poison from a bite and for a
moment I'm paralysed by the pain, feeling my bones break and transform.
| growl at Zade, who watcheswith a small smirk.
“You aren't as weak as | presumed,” he murmurs.
‘No, | am not.” | reply, forcing my voice through the mind link that | know I have with him. He is family and no
matter what he believes, he is not Adam's son.
His eyes flash as he shifts and launches himself at me. | meet him head on, throwing him aside, only for him to
turn and swipe his claws across. my jaw.
| snarl at him as blood splatters the ground beneath us before we begin to circle one another. ‘See the world

try again. | don’t know why | think he'd listen.
“You're one to talk,” he snarls. “This will make the world a better place and I can finally live free from the pain
and secrets. After this day, even the humans will know that we are greater! We will control not only the

Madness.
His words are delusional... he is blinded and with cold clarity, | realise that he will not listen to me...
“Alpha Hugh! Get the hell out of there! Alpha’s Zaia’s orders!” Jai growls at me, his eyes blazing as Zade
advances on me. This the’s ready for the kill and his aura blazes higher around him.
| can’t move as it clamps down on me, creating an invisible prison around me.
Move!
But no matter how much I try, | can’t fight his aura. It’s strong, but even then | know that there are two other
auras | have felt that are stronger than his...
The true leaders of our kind...
Zaia and Sebastian.
| smile internally, realising why they were paired... a force to be reckoned with...
‘Zaia...’
‘Dad!’
My heart skips a beat at the pain in her voice. What is happening? Why is she so devastated?
I don’t have the tto ask...
Jai and Justin are hammering against the prison around me.
‘Dad, I'm coming!’ Zaia’s voice comes in my head, full of desperation and pain. 2
‘No, don't, child. Focus on what you need to do. Zaia, | know that you and Sebastian have had every force in this
world try to tear you apart, but he loves you. You love him. Give each other one final chance. | love you, child.”
‘Dad! Don’t you dare make this a farewell!” Her voice breaks and | close my eyes as Zade sinks his teeth into my
neck, ripping a chunk of my flesh right out, but he is not done.
Even through the pain and shouts, all | see is the hatred in his one good eye as he launches himself atonce
more... Is this it?
The end?
At the hands of my own son?
| see him raise his blood-covered claws, hackles raised, his eye blazing with rage and hatred as he launches
himself atand | await the final blow...
